Bingo!

I run in 1360x768.

Old fart here with old eyes. LOL!

 

I'll try the the higher res soon as I get a chance.

Betting that's my problem.

 

thanks Skypat for the help :thumbup:

 

Confirmed!

the higher res works, all buttons present and accounted for.

I can change res. load mod than change back.

 

Thanks again for the help and the great program. :pilotfly:

ModManFX gives an error when trying to click "Install Mod" button.

A small popup is displayed with title "AutoIt Error" and message:

 

 

Line 27223 (File "C:\MODMAN\ModManFXv1276\ModManFX64.exe"):

Error: Variable used without being declared.

 

 

Weird thing is that it used to work a few weeks ago. I wonder what changed?

 

 

*EDIT*

 

 

Doh, my bad. The error occurs only if no mod is selected when trying to click the install button. :doh:

Thank you for making modman. I followed the instructions (a while ago) when I installed DCS fHolgerReshade. But then time passed and memory fuzzed. I asked somebody on DCS forums and did what he said - just dropped a zip file into the folder where modman is installed, E:\Dropbox\DCS\[Mods\ModManFX\Profiles\DCS World OpenBeta\mods. It worked.

Now I actually reread your instructions.---

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

- For MODS, if zip archive file contains a JSGME COMPLIANT tree structure like below:
[ZIP FILE] (ie: http://mymod.zip)
<mod name folder>  <<< THIS IS IT
file1
file2
file...
<subfolder1>
file1
file2
file...
<subfolder2>
file1
file2
file...
<subfolder...>
----> you must extract <MOD NAME FOLDER> from zip archive to ...\ModManFX\profiles\<your game profile name>\Mods\<MOD NAME FOLDER>

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Well, the mod I was installing, DCS VR Shaders mod for 2.7.7.14727 (Clear Water).zip which inside has at its root, the folder,DCS VR Shaders mod for 2.7.7.14727 (Clear Water)

So did my laziness create a problem of which I am unaware? the mod seems to work.
